As Keeneland’s Fall meet draws to a close this week in Lexington, there is another type of race to watch over the next five weeks that is certainly starting to draw interest from sports fans in the Bluegrass and across the South.
With a conference record of 3-2, Kentucky is in second place in the SEC East Division. If Kentucky can beat Missouri on Saturday, and Georgia somehow upsets Florida, the Cats will be in sole possession of first place in the SEC East.
The Wildcats have two seemingly winnable conference games left before they wrap it up on the road at #18 Tennessee, which is becoming a more intriguing match-up to Kentucky fans by the day.
